The fire demolished much of the town, and the next transformation was mainly in one style. In the 19th century, when other cities were fast rising during the Industrial Rebellion, Warwick did not know the same development. Part of the reason Warwick did not grow as a centre of the industry was that the town did not lie on significant roads and the River Avon was not manoeuvrable as far as Warwick.
